Actually, 99 tail lights would be very nice. If it takes a month or so to get out, I think that we can handle that if the price is ok.



So. . . when does my shifter get sent out? :P

Some of the shifters are going a little late. I got a little

messed up on the count since some people were late.

No biggie, I will get them out ASAP

APEXKW-- I would love to hook that up. The only problem is Mazda doesnt offer discount for bulk buying. So even if we got 1000 people in on it, it still wouldnt change the price.



Normal price on the front Winkers is $315 shipped.



The rear tail lights new are like $900, I would have to

double check though. $$$$



Hummmm i can GB almost anything guys. I found another place to ship big items and it looks like I might be able to do GBs on bumpers. Also I will be updating the GB price on the DIFFUSER it will go down. Also the GB on the 99 spec bumpers will be very possible VERY SOON! I will be getting my own shop in or around JUNE WOOOHOOO!! Its about time......

Not to diss you jason but the round tail lights are about $400 at RX7.com.



I have been looking into converting an Fd 99spec style so I wil most likly be in on the whole shebang. Lights, bumper and wing. Even the emblams. But....it has to wait till this summer. Not making enough right now. But I will look to you for the hookup

No not at all man. I appreciate the info



I just looked in the MAZDA parts catalog for 00- current



It says

$270-- for each side

$240 for the center piece



Ok I looked since they say pair, Im assuming that only

means the left and right, I can beat that. It was $498.

plus tax and shipping.



comes with the harness and all that good stuff



So around $900 was close, not bad for off the top of my head.



Granted I sells USED in like new condition for $250 shipped.



I liked RX7.com comment on Price matching, very nice..



OFF the SUBJECT, but kind of on it.



Being in Japan, I understand sometimes but not always I have an advantage. Now I have ran into friends from high school, people in my home town, family that I didnt know I have, and also I have met and talked to a lot of cool people. I have my cell phone number on our web page, and your welcome to call anytime, I have a crank call that I get from in Japan, so its doenst bother me. If Im sleeping I wont hear it, if Im at work(main job) I probably wont hear it due to machinery. Your welcome to leave a message after the Japanese lady gets done talking. I wont be able to return your phone call right away, since my cell doesnt call international. I have gotten phone calls on parts from 440am which is when I wake up everyday except weekends, all the way till midnight. Now granted Im not at 100% yet at those times, but I do my best. Anytime you stop into Japan, I would be more then happy to help you get a hotel, but if your strapped, I got a spare room, and a whole lot of floor space. I try to be around as much as possible, I try to be online a lot, I try to be quick as possible, but I even get questions on Lotus and Porsche parts, so be kind. I am working hehehe



I started this business and I hope to make it go both ways. No im not a saint but Im not a theif either. I got ripped off on some car parts for my RX7 before I even knew where to buy parts in Japan, so thats why Im here, to improve what we have, and help expand it. Every shop you see on our web page has been talked to prior to it going on our webpage. Now you will see such companies as SARD, CUSCO, etc.... On our webpage, but there is nothing there. There is a GREAT reason for this, we havent talked to them yet. Im just a little guy, so getting discounts for you guys hasnt been great, but time increases the profit for you and me. I have talked to FEED, RE, PANSPEED on soooo many occations that I just say hi and they tell me whats up with our parts, just like I can do with most of my customers and I appreciate that just as much as Im sure you would. When I do business deals I actually drive to every company in my off time. I have drove over 4 hours due to traffic to see PANSPEED, ant talk to them. Everyone else is pretty close, but like Knightsports, of where they are in Tokyo, traffic would take me all day. I havent been to Border, but I did get the chance to talk to them, nice people, and soon they will be going up too, I worked some great deals with them, and I hope to pass them your way.



I understand sometimes I seem so far away, but I do make stops in Cali and I like to travel. I stopped by some shops when I was in Cali. Talked to some people, some didnt know who I was just because there is nothing wrong with looking around. Im sure if I was in Arizona and you were in Oregon, for some to come to my shop, if would be just as hard as if they needed to drive to Hawaii. Im always around. Im in close contact with all the companies, Im always more then happy to call the big guys even if it is to check to see even if its to see you can fit 17x10 wheels on an FC hehe......



Most exercise all these options and I never get tired, well as of yet. I love cars, probably always will. So always feel free to ask..... I get I would say approx 40 E-mails during anyday of the week, weither they come as PMs, or straight to my address. Somedays I whipped from work, so im pretty tired and they slip to the next day, but most get answered the same day. Sometimes they slip by me, computer error, or for some stupid reason I delete them on accident. If your e-mails dont get answered within 3-4 days, im either dead, or one of the above things have happened.



Well thats about it. I have seen several comments not directed in any order on the internet towards internet business, but if your legite in Japan up until this year you would need $30,000 for assets and business license, land and shop, more then $30,000 more. Now I personally dont have that kind of cash laying around, and Im pretty sure there is no cost like that for a start up in the US. So I do what I can with what I have.



Well anyway.... I think thats about it....



Sorry about the writing, I listen to my wife too much and her broken english

is killing mine HAHA

Thank you so much! Dude, is that 250 price for the whole set?? I would wait several months if that is the price tag. (even throw in a bit extra for the trouble)



I wish I knew someone like you when I was modding out the crx. You can find the best stuff for this car!



Thanks again
